Moving while taking the test, talking while taking the test, stress, anxiety, drinking coffee several minutes before the test, eating food several minutes before the test, and smoking several minutes before the test can affect blood pressure test readings.
While there is no recommended frequency, taking a blood pressure test routinely is recommended, especially if you or a patient are prone to Hypertension.
Simply making adjustments to one’s lifestyle can help immensely. Adjustments can include having a diet that’s good for the heart, having less salt intake, reducing or stopping alcohol consumption, reducing or altogether avoiding tobacco products, getting regular exercise, maintaining healthy body weight, and adequately managing stress.
